Great Attorney - Highly Recommend

Charley represented me on 2 occasions and I have referred at least 3 other people that need representation. Charley is extremely well versed in both criminal and civil litigation. I find him open minded and a great advocate for his clients. Our relationship goes back 10+ years and he is the only atto...rney I would consider for representation.

Excellent and Knowledgeable Attorney

Charley Hess is professional and a charming gentleman. I am 73 years old and, over my business career, have met and employed several attorneys. Charley is as competent and ethical as any attorney with whom I’ve been involved. He thinks on his feet and outworks his opposition. He quickly grasps si...tuations that seem too complicated for his opposing counsel. I’ve retained Mr. Hess in struggles against Ford Motor Co. and Merrill Lynch – and, in each case, he won more than I thought possible. I highly recommend Mr. Hess to anyone in need of an extremely competent lawyer.

"PROFESSIONAL...PERSONABLE...."A FEARLESS AND RELENTLESS CHAMPION FOR THE UNDERDOG!"

Having known Mr. Charles, "Charley", Hess since high school days, I had early opportunity to see his identifiable and admirable character traits: great work ethic, high intellectual ability, compassion for others, relentless pursuit at whatever the task and a powerful drive to "just get things righ...t"! Subsequently, many years later, I had the good fortune to have Mr. Hess represent me in a sundry of legal concerns: 1) In court, per Mr. Hess's counsel, I disputed having to pay delinquent taxes that were erroneously "dumped" on me when my family and I purchased a large land parcel (we won) 2) I was arrested for a domestic violence charge that was basically a "set-up" by my ex-wife and her "lawyer-boyfriend" (charges were dropped/we won) 3) I purchased a new, 2006 Chrysler 300 vehicle that continued to have mechanical deficiencies with its alignment and steering rods; 5 trips to the dealership without getting it fixed>>hence: Mr. Hess sued Chrysler under the "Lemon-law" provisions (Again, we won! The settlement allowed me correct the problem). While these are three examples of my own personal concerns, I have referred Mr. Hess to several of my relatives who also benefitted in all matters he addressed. Moreover, I know of a number of situations where Mr. Hess has helped out some of our "down-and-out" classmates who got into big trouble. Charley, due to fault of his own, always jumped in to help out without being concerned whether they could pay him or not. His loyalty to friends and compassion for those in need are a constant daily mantra for Mr. Hess. Without any reservation whatsoever, , I highly recommend Mr. Charles, "Charley", Hess to anyone who needs important legal representation!

Charley is quite adept and knowledgeable about tort law. I have known Charley for over 59 years, and I have used his services as a professional law expert in several situations over the past 25 years. I have been thoroughly impressed with his ability to maneuver through the judicial system and get ...results for his clients.
